The fi ve faculty and 113 students present when Butler University opened in 1855 laid a solid foundation for over 150 years of creative change and progress. Today’s 4,200 students carry on that legacy, as they continue to look ahead while treasuring the traditions unique to Butler. The young school, originally named North Western Christian University, was unusually innovative. It was the fi rst in Indiana, and only the third in the nation, to admit women on an equal basis with men. With the appointment in 1858 of Catherine Merrill as Demia Butler Professor of English, the institution became the second in the country to appoint a woman faculty member, the fi rst to establish an endowed chair specifi cally for a female professor and the fi rst to establish a professorship in English literature. The school was also the fi rst in Indiana to allow its students, with parental consent, to choose subjects suited to their needs under a new “elective” system. As Indianapolis grew, the city’s commercial district began to penetrate the heavily-wooded campus at what is now the corner of Thirteenth Street and College Avenue. In 1873, the board of directors decided to sell the downtown campus and accept a gift of 25 acres in Irvington, then a suburb east of Indianapolis. In 1877, North Western Christian University became Butler University, taking the name of its founder and benefactor, Indianapolis attorney Ovid Butler. Butler moved again 50 years later, as the “Circle City” continued to grow. In 1928, classes were held for the fi rst time in Jordan Hall, an imposing new Gothic structure erected on the beautiful Fairview Park Site, a wooded tract north of the city on the White River and the Inland Waterway Canal. Today’s students come from nearly every state in the nation and from many foreign countries to enroll in degree programs in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, or in one of four professional colleges -- Business Administration, Education, Fine Arts or Pharmacy and Health Sciences. Butler is one of only 21 private schools in the country offering a pharmacy program. 2 • 2008-092008-09 ButlerButler BasketballBasketball BButlerutler UniversityUniversity True to the vision of its founders, the University continues to offer an array of professional and pre-professional programs within the context of a strong commitment to the traditional arts and sciences and to the values of liberal education. Butler continues to welcome highly motivated, intellectually curious men and women, and to prepare them for lives of professional and community service and creative, ethical action. Butler is one of the top 20 US colleges for producing business executives, is in the top 10% for preparing future Ph.D.s and is located in the Number 2 city for college graduates starting a career. Although the thriving city of Indianapolis has once again grown to surround Butler University, the 290-acre campus remains a serenely beautiful area with 20 buildings, playing fi elds, a formal botanical garden, and a nature preserve surrounded by well- established residential communities.

Tomlinson left it in his will that his estate should be turned into public buildings for the city after his wife also passed. It read " He passed on November 14, 1870. His wife made a contract in 1871 by which the city would take ownership of the property and she would receive $7,000 per year until her death. Tomlinson Hall was then constructed in 1885–86. The approximate cost of the building, with running water and heating, was $137,500. On January 30, 1958, a four- alarm fire engulfed the building. Despite public dissent, the building was razed on July 8, 1958 as it could not be saved. It was not reconstructed. Sunset Terrace: With the end of prohibition in the United States, several night clubs and taverns sprang up along Indiana Avenue after 1933. The Sunset Terrace was one of the many properties within the area owned by brothers Denver and Sea Ferguson.

  • Choosing the Right Path
    MAGAZINE SPRING 2015 The Choosing the right path BUTLER With every pedagogical and strategic decision we make at UNIVERSITY Butler University, we must ask ourselves a crucial question: What will the future of learning look like? Advances in technological quality and access; shifting A MESSAGE demographics; rising educational-delivery costs and student-debt loads; nationwide cuts in public-university from funding; a growing movement among bright young people PRESIDENT to skip the college experience; and the promise of micro- credentialing—among other factors—have forced American JAMES M. universities to recognize that undergraduate education is DANKO in the midst of a profound transformation from which there will be no return. Harvard Professor Clayton Christensen, an expert in disruptive innovation, has asserted that half of all American universities may be bankrupt by 2028. While I view this estimate as high, I do believe that 20 percent is a reasonable prediction. However, I also know that Butler is exceptionally well prepared for this sea change in higher education. As we continue to make thoughtful decisions as a collaborative community, we are ensuring that Butler not only survives for many generations to come, but thrives. In the approaching decades, there will be an ongoing demand among young people and their families for high-quality, traditional, residential undergraduate education. Although the number of schools that offer this campus experience may shrink, those who do it best—including Butler—will succeed. Accordingly, in our Butler 2020 Strategic Plan, we are protecting our University’s unique character by investing in the attributes that define it: outstanding academics within a caring campus community; faculty who are accessible to their students; a commitment to integrate the liberal arts with professional education; learning that emphasizes global perspectives, critical thinking, and meaningful volunteerism; and curricular and extra-curricular programs that prepare graduates for lives of purpose in an increasingly complex world.

Triple-A East consists on 20 teams; all 14 from the International League, plus teams moving from the Pacific Coast League, the Southern League and the independent Atlantic League. Triple-A West is comprised of nine Pacific Coast League teams and one addition from the Atlantic League.
